A great moment, and I too remember it like yesterday even though it was 10 years ago (!). I was town end of the Pop for that match. It was actually my first time on the Pop as I was, until then, a mainstand terrace-er, but didn't manage to get a ticket for the mainstand.

The game was pretty poor from a Rovers perspective and I suspect I wasn't the only one thinking we were going nowhere in the play offs until that late, late goal. BV erupted when Tris's shot hit the back of the net. A great moment in Rovers history.

I bought Tris's shirt in the Belles fund raiser match, met him afterwards and thanked him for that goal. Oh, how important it was. You really have to wonder how history for Rovers would have panned out without it.

Happy Tristram Whitman day everyone!

I remember it seemed like the whole of the pop stand jumped about a foot off the floor when that went in!

That is honestly the first time I have seen that footage but can still remember the goal
Remember a few had left ground thinking we weren't getting anywhere pop side erupted
Good job we never kicked ball out to get Ricky sorted
